Infantry in War Thunder: what are your expectations?

If I can’t play as the jsdf, I’m not going to touch it. Also I’d like to see a combination of enlisted and squad. Squads organization and raw gameplay, with enlisteds progression or whatever. I’m just pulling this out my ass.

I’d also like to see bigger maps then enlisted and smaller maps the squad.

Thanks all for the replies. If first person only then it looks like no Infantry for me then :(

definantly, i’d expect sth like a old Al barash map size, with relative balence in building density

also i do want to have the possibility of running logi and placing supply for deployable wepon and reinforcements, which gives much better playability for mordern war compared to WWII in enlisted

I have my proposal regarding larger map in my post " What do you expect simulator mode of infantry fighting"

I expect a 125 mm HE round to turn infantry into red soup with little crumbs!! If only I had a straw!!

I expect the M2A3 or A4 with TOW-BB missiles.

also it only takes 6.5s to load!

Hey,

A standalone mode that can partly be considered a separate game.

this aged like fine wine

Imma just leave that cope alone then

Cope in the cope cage

Hopefully this means we see some infantry only vehicles like bulldozer or armoured car/truck

Some could easily be added to the base game as they have ATGMs but a lot of the bulldozer kits with there armour and ERA just have gernade launcher and heavy MGs. What stuff like that do you want to see?

I wonder how robots would work in infantry there is the Shturm Robot Tank but that can be a normal tank in game tomorrow it has crew spots still. The RC feature is just something that will come standard in the future.

The drone issue is real now so maybe jammers and fibre optic tech? We have also seen since the 2000s army’s modified RC cars into basic recon and tank killers. Less popular but still out there vs there flying cousins.

Before Gaijin adds planes in they should add the attack drone in. Won’t be 2 op it’s only got 2 missiles

Ik I’m huffing cope, but Infantry is the Belgium subtree’s time to shine. So many weapons, combined with how France already has plenty of variety, but FN could bring a whole host of new toys
It’s just a matter of fact that Gaijin, sadly, is not big on a nation like France

I don’t mean it in a rude way but what made you think so at the time ? Just reading the thread again lol

I want Big maps, 70 vs 70, up to 10 player squads, logistic vehicles, transport vehicles, every kind of vehicle, and the only way that’s going to work is by having large maps. At this point Im just describing squad, but squad is a near perfect teamwork experience only really suffering from all the things that war thunder is good at. Of course we can have small maps with a more arcade experience but two game modes would be needed

Gaijin looked at Enlisted and decided they could make something even worse.

Seriously, what exactly do people enjoy about infantry mode? You’re either getting blown up by a tank that can see you across the map with thermals or you’re getting killed at every place you try to go to because there’s someone hiding in a corner or at one of the 50 windows in a single building.

To call the damage system unreliable is an understatement. You can catch someone off guard, shove the muzzle of your gun up their rear and empty the magazine and then they turn around and kill you with two shots.

There is nothing enjoyable about infantry mode in any regard unless you’re using a tank.
